She invites activists and scholars alike to consider food politics as a hemispheric and even global issue of equity and sustainability rather than personal choices affecting localized health and environmental outcomes"--Provided by publisher.SOCIAL SCIENCE / Indigenous StudiesbisacshElectronic books.

Runia -- Bibliography /Albert C. Geljon and David T. Runia -- Indices /Albert C. Geljon and David T. Runia.The Jewish exegete and philosopher Philo of Alexandria has long been famous for his allegorical treatises on the Greek Bible. The present volume contains the first translation and commentary in English on his treatise De agricultura ( On cultivation ), which gives an elaborate allegorical interpretation of Genesis 9:20. Noah’s role as a cultivator is analysed in terms of the ethical and spiritual quest of the soul making progress towards its goal. The translation renders Philo’s baroque Greek into readable modern English. The commentary pays particular attention to the treatise’s structure, its biblical basis and its exegetical and philosophical contents. The volume will be valuable for the insights it gives into an unusual but highly influential method of biblical interpretation.Philo of Alexandria Commentary Series4.Philosophy, AncientPhilosophy, Ancient.222.11068Philoof Alexandria845271Geljon Albert C1961495Runia David T152904MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911098581903321Philo of Alexandria, on cultivation4723245UNINA
